None of the Paid Republican Pundits are gonna address the Gore speech
until Kkkarl gives the nod.
They are getting the talking points in line.
Can't fall out of lockstep...

1. Of course not.
What did you expect?

It's up to us to get the word out about Al's speech.
There is no more independent mainstream media.
There are only trained corporate seals.

We ARE the media now.

2. They better duck and run. Big Al's gonna come after these
worthless pack of peckers once he's back in the White House for real.

A Gore-appointed special prosecutor would bang more than a few heads.

4. Perhaps they shouldn't, at this point. It was an AMERICAN speech,
not a political speech.

There is time....

6. Well I don't know about other congress people but
my congress person was speaking in my town at the time of Gore's speech. Maybe a lot were. Then he had three meetings and a wake. Too bad he missed it. Maybe others missed it too. Shut up until you see what happens. Stop complaining about what you think the democrats should do and not do. Maybe your not so smart.

7. The DNC should have been on top of this, hopefully they will get on top
Edited on Mon Jan-16-06 07:03 PM by caligirl
of this. Constructive criticism is no reason to hurl insults. Thats what righties do. One of the biggest reasons the dems are and have been in trouble is their inability to frame the debate or issue ahead of the RNC and put framing into action. They need to get out in front of this and frame it, not wait around for the RNC to do it first(sMehlman today found the time). Your entitled to your opinion as I am mine, but calling a fellow du'er stupid is rude. Go shine your floors.

8. "shut up"???? What a fucking rude response.
My comment suggested that the Dems needn't comment immediately, and you tell me to "shut up" and "Stop complaining"?!? What the fuck are you on?

10. Gore will be in the headlines tomorrow, more dems will comment
Edited on Mon Jan-16-06 10:35 PM by caligirl
and the worthless rude comment above(I thought the poster meant that for me) is completely unacceptable blogosphere behavior. NO CLASS.

With regard to dems commenting or not,your probably right in hindsight. Most people will probably agree with you.


SS, :puke:

5. I think they'll end up going with the Crazy Ol' Al approach
"Gore's been talking to his far leftist buddies at democratic underground and he's spewing out crazy crazy stuff."

9. No. Silence is to make this news cycle as short as possible. IMHO
Edited on Mon Jan-16-06 09:04 PM by applegrove
Plus, MSM have to get back to more important things.. like how Dems took money from Abramoff (not), or how Laura thinks Domestic Spying is okay (it is - just not without a warrant before or well after the fact).
